Step 2

Permitting & Safety

We will work with the installer and local governments to make sure we have the necessary permits, certifications, and safety protocols in place before we ever step foot on your property.

Step 3

Site Preparation

Little Dippers sit on a pre-engineered concrete slab custom poured for the soil type of the site. In-ground or semi-recessed pools typically require additional excavation and soil removal.

Step 4

Crane Hire

A crane is required to lift the pool from our delivery truck and place it onto the concrete base slab. Access to the property, location, and complexity of the install all factor into the cost of the cranes so a free site assessment and quote will be provided.

Step 5

Plumbing & Electrical

Primary plumbing fixtures and electrical hook-ups come standard with every Little Dipper. Depending on the chosen equipment, Little Dippers require a plumb-up by a professional pool builder or plumber. Similarly, Little Dippers require earthed electrical done by a qualified electrician.

Step 6

Backfill

If the Little Dipper is being installed in-ground or semi-recessed, the over-excavated area of the footing will need to be backfilled with a granular material that will allow for drainage away from the footings.

Step 7

Fill & Enjoy

Once your pool has been installed and inspected, the pool can then be filled and the chemicals can be balanced. Then comes the best part — call your friends and enjoy your Little Dipper!
